Default Polaris does not have power

Need Help. My 2005 ranger lost all power except to the fuel pump. Battery is fully charged. I understand there are not any fuses. Does anyone have any ideas on what the problem is?

Is there power to red/white wire at terminal board next to battery with key on? Does ANY wire at ECM under hood have power? Also there is a brake switch with 2 wires under left front fender that acts as a starter interlock along as a brakelight switch,have had one bad would not start,BUT had power to lights,etc. Jump across the 2 wires and see? Is this a 500 or 700xp? If xp disconnect ECU connector and stick back in,just like rebooting a computer.

My ranger was running great yesterday ..my daughter drove it home from a pasture and now it does nothing..its like you aren't putting foot on brake to start..all lights come on..went ahead and recharged battery but it was fine...what could the problem be?..when you turn key nothing happens...
